Here's a few projects that caught my eye from last week:

I apologize for being MIA lately! We've got a little over a week left before school gets out for the summer, and it seems like every day is filled with one activity or another. I haven't had much time to craft, but I'm hoping things will slow down, 'cause I need my craft time!!

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day!! When my husband and kids asked what I wanted for Mother's Day, my reply was this: "A day off from cooking dinner and doing dishes!!" Well...they came through and made a yummy dinner and cleaned up afterwards!! THE BEST MOTHER'S DAY EVER!!

The projects that I chose to feature today are all pillows. Fabulous pillows!!

I've been planning/working on gifts for my Mom and MIL for weeks, and am thrilled to be sending them these adorable Mother's Day Corsages!

Oh, how I LOVE THEM!! They were a little time consuming, but TOTALLY worth it!! I wanted the packaging to be as cute as the corsages, so I used some empty plastic strawberry containers and left over paper Easter grass.

Here's a closer view...

They went off in the mail yesterday just to be sure that my Mom and MIL will get them in time for Mother's Day. And since I loved them so much, I may have made myself one (or two) as a Mother's Day gift to myself....shhhhhh!

Yesterday was one of "those" days. While I was teaching my clogging class, one of my daughters came running into the building with a frantic look. Apparently my 3-year-old son was throwing rocks and ended up shattering the driver's side window of my van. Nice. And I had forgotten my purse, so I didn't have my cell phone with me. I ended up having to carefully take out all the jagged pieces of the window and tape up some plastic around the window frame. But on the bright side, I had to vacuum up all the pieces of glass from the inside of my van. So I lost a window and gained a clean van. I'm not sure if that's a fair trade, but what can ya do?!

Now, let's see some projects that caught my eye from last week's linky party:
